Space Wolves (2.4.2) V’s Lost And The Damned (NetEA Army Compendium v20120208)

Well it Friday again and as always manage to get another game of epic in. Our standard game as all ways 5000 points per side and this time its Space Wolves (2.4.2) V’s Lost And The Damned (NetEA Army Compendium v20120208).

Few words from the Space Wolves commander….

Combat in the city: Greg and I had another "Epic" 5000 points battle today, with Greg setting up the terrain to be urban with destroyed tall buildings everywhere. Very impressive to look at, and definitely effecting tactics and how to best utilize your forces in it. The battle was very hard fought, with Greg bursting into my table side near game end with precious little to stand in his way. Some of the more memorable moments for me were:* My air assault in Thunderhawks to take the Blitz objective. Wave one was a disaster, but Wave two finally took it. With only a few defenders it looked like it would be a walkover. Those Cultists were tough!* My bikes spotted a mass of fleeing chaos types on my left flank and took off to attack. Bad mistake. Not only did the routed unit break the bike unit, they did the same to the second bike unit to try! My third bike unit felt it best to leave them alone!* Both of us rolled double 1's for battle results at different times. Overall, luck averaged out but I'm doubtful if we made the statistical average.* Greg had horrible luck rallying at the end of turn 3.* The Officer in charge of giving me Predator Destructors instead of Annihilators was given a brief trial and lengthy execution :- ) * I was in fear of the two huge Chaos war engines carrying masses of troops on my right flank, and decided the best strategy was to leave them alone and give them plenty of room. Fortunately for me, they failed an early activation and were too slow to do more damage. All in all, an excellent game with the usual laughs, tough tactical decisions, and excitement that makes Epic Armageddon the great game it is. I appreciate the hard work you put in both setting up the game And doing those beautiful AAR's Greg.
